“(Weinand) has a proven track record in change management and helping challenged businesses reach their full potential,” Brandicourt said in a statement. Bayer added that Hartmut Klusik, its labor director and board member responsible for technology, was given a contract extension by one year until the end of 2019, confirming a Reuters report. Two sources familiar with the company have said an extension of Klusik’s contract had been in doubt because drug production at Bayer’s Leverkusen plant in Germany was found to be substandard by U.S. regulators in February and this fell under his remit.
VERONA, N.Y, (Reuters) - Breaking off from a tour of dairy operations on a farm in upstate New York, U.S, Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue tramps across a muddy path to take a sample of sweet corn from an adjacent field, With a wide smile, he shucks the ear and takes a bite, then passes it around to others in the crowd before getting back to his mission: selling farmers on the merits of President Donald Trump’s trade war, sodalite and sterling silver stonehenge bracelet (17.5cm) cufflinks The grandfather known as “Secretary Sonny” on Instagram and Twitter has racked up thousands of miles, visiting 42 states, on a goodwill tour trying to shore up support among farmers who heavily supported Trump in 2016 - but now see their livelihood threatened after losing much of the massive Chinese market for staple crops such as soybeans, pork and sorghum..
A former Georgia governor and veterinarian whose family farmed about 1,000 acres, Perdue has kept a low profile in volatile Washington but served as a kind of ambassador for Trump across broad swaths of rural America. While many farmers remain loyal to the president, they have urged him and congressional Republicans to resolve the trade disputes with China, Europe, Canada and Mexico quickly as commodity prices and exports plummet. Some have worked to maintain relationships with Chinese importers behind the scenes.
Others are downright angry, questioning the protectionist policies and criticizing the administration’s recently announced subsidy package for farmers, meant to help soften the blow of retaliatory Chinese tariffs, “Trade not aid” has become a rallying cry, “The need for trade aid and relief is just a result of this sodalite and sterling silver stonehenge bracelet (17.5cm) cufflinks administration’s trade policies,” said Pam Johnson, who has been farming corn and soybeans in Iowa for more than four decades, Trump’s critics in farm country also wonder why the $6.1 billion farm aid package announced by Perdue and his deputies on Aug, 27 fell short of the $12 billion promised in July, Perdue says additional payments will be evaluated..
The secretary aims to mollify such critics and rally supporters just as the Republican face high-stakes midterm Congressional elections this fall against Democrats trying to retake control of the U.S. House and Senate. He has appeared at farms with local Republican candidates. Perdue tells farmers the trade dispute with China - normally the top buyer of U.S. soybeans, the nation’s most valuable agricultural export - is a short-term sacrifice needed to gain better long-term trade deals. An Air Force veteran, the 71-year-old agriculture secretary says farmers are patriots who are willing to do their part to ensure that the United States gets a fair deal in global trade - an argument that gets mixed reviews.
“I don’t know what patriotism has to do with losing money,” said Gary Lynch, who raises hogs in Iowa, And yet Lynch said he continues to support Perdue and the administration, “He knows the business, he knows ag,” Lynch said after participating in a roundtable discussion with the secretary in Iowa, “He knows the sodalite and sterling silver stonehenge bracelet (17.5cm) cufflinks game.”, Farmers in upstate New York seemed reassured by Perdue’s easy manner and rural roots, laughing as he spun tales about getting hit in the face with cows’ tails during early morning milking..
His political message connected with farmers such as Tony Emmi, a 55-year-old who grows fruits and vegetables on 300 acres in Baldwinsville, New York. “I know it is sort of hard to take that on the chin, but it is about time these trade balances get leveled out a little bit,” said Emmi, who saw Perdue at a dairy in Cortland, New York. “We are just getting taken advantage of way too much.”. Some farm industry advocates have long railed against the North American Free Trade Agreement, which Trump has relentlessly targeted. Florida tomato producers contend the deal has allowed Mexico to flood the U.S. with cheap imports, while U.S. dairy farmers have fought against Canadian import tariffs. But most U.S. agriculture groups argue that farmers rely heavily on trade deals – and have grown increasingly fearful about losing market access as the trade war has escalated.
Washington imposed tariffs on $34 billion worth of a wide range of Chinese imports on July 6, and Beijing immediately retaliated on an equal amount of goods, focusing on autos and agricultural products, The Trump administration has accused China of targeting farmers in order to punish regions that favored the President in 2016, Chinese soy sodalite and sterling silver stonehenge bracelet (17.5cm) cufflinks importers have since quickly retreated from the U.S, market and aim to drastically cut back on purchases of U.S, soybeans, Some U.S, farmers are starting to worry that U.S, aid won’t be enough to get them through a prolonged dispute..
